The expansion and redo of the 60 year old Trans Mountain oil line to Burnaby from Edmonton is employing nearly 10,000 people at this point. A great deal of national prestige and the sense that we as a people can do something and do it right is balanced on the outcome of this venture.

Nearly all the social economic and cultural definitions of Canadians is being tested with this pipeline.Today we start to present a series of 🎭 article for your perosel

1000 KM and internet all the way.

trans mountain pipeline expansion stopped stop work on it s the expansion and also shut down the supply line to the coast of BC on November 14th 2021. This is a voluntary preemptive shutdown due to the flooding in British Columbia.

The company have in some part committed it’s resources to flood mitigation.

At this time there is not a date for the return of production or construction in the norm and it’s timeline to complete the expansion by the end of 2022

Vaccination progress in Canada, doses per 100 people, 167…

Filed under: immigration, Population, Public health by Kevin Griffiths — Leave a comment
October 4, 2021

There is almost double the amount of doses per 100 people in Canada as compared to the world’s 80.75. The number of 1st doses for the world is north of three and a half billion. This is taking pressure off the notion that there is an inequity in giving boosters to the vulnerable in the Canadian population.

Alberta September cases 15% of all cases since beginning of outbreak

Alberta reported 45,655 cases in September. The reason is purported to be because of unrestricted opening up that was to early and a large unvaccinated population.

Get vaccinated.

Now is the time for the resistant to be vaccinated. There is a lot of access including major grocery store pharmacies.

Large populations of young returning to school.

Six Hundred thousand children are returning to school in BC this fall and smaller doses of vaccine is on the cusp of being used for them. The amount world wide is a considerable part of the population and the undertaking would go better if the unvaccinated was not a complication.

Good luck as we hope for a return to normal living.

Happy Save Japans Dolphins Day…

Filed under: -Photography, Debates, films, Population, Seniors, Social Activism by Kevin Griffiths — Leave a comment
September 1, 2021

Japan a sea going seafood nation.

Japan is a seafood loving , long life expectancy, going to sea nation. Claiming poverty for living space because of a lage population on 5 main islands, there are thousands of small islands under their control .

Dolphins range about and have individual characters

Dolphins are distinct from Porpoise ( not by being aimless and without porpoise) but by their teeth Dolphin teeth are conical Porpoise teeth are Flattened.

Japanese History as Seamen

The Japanese have a tradition of seamanship and vessels. They are not to be mistaken for the Chinese and their junks. Both have a long trading history with the middle east and the sill road when it was mostly navigated by following the long coastline. Their craft resembles the Arabic sloops of that time.

Sample attitude of public health officials across Atlantic Canada.

The road ahead is now clear but there are no shortcuts if you want to see New Brunswick reach that green level as quickly as possible please go out and get yourself vaccinated and encourage your family and friends to do the same thank you very much good afternoon .It is important that we don’t lose sight of our objective we know that there’s been some differences and and how we’re rolling out and moving forward in the end and of getting beyond covid we also know that we’re all very tired of this and no one’s any more tired of of than I am but this isn’t a time to lose control or lose patience or cause disruptions to friend and neighbors this is a time that we exercise restraint we keep moving in a direction that’s getting us back to life as normal and we do so in our respective areas that are providing the best health care needs and opportunities we are on the cusp here of getting back to green (normal) and will work through the issues within Atlantic region and I’m confident that we will be able to do so I’m going to be meeting with my with my colleagues our view hasn’t changed we are very comfortable with the recommendations of public health we’re very comfortable with the capabilities in our respective provinces the border between Atlanta provinces and we will make all of this work. It was a path to Green.

There are some very precise requirements to meet in order to go to the next phase it’s take it took a phase approach of easing the covid-19 restrictions it’s based on recommendations of public health and it was approved by the Covington committee

Fortis BC Clean Energy vision. UBCM

Get used to it …

The committee on climate action met on November 13th. This was their third meeting. The group included BC Hydro with an interest in advancing their step code.

Step code

FortisBC also presented its Clean Energy Vision, and highlighted the different low carbon pathways that could be taken to achieve provincial emission reduction targets. 

The Committee reviewed and discussed Committee member submissions on key local government pathways for reducing emissions and for achieving a maximum 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius global temperature rise. The submissions focused on buildings, transportation, energy systems, waste management, land use planning, natural assets, and carbon sequestration. Committee deliberations addressed both the barriers to successfully implementing these pathways, as well as the factors that would ensure their successful adoption. The Committee will continue to explore mitigation pathways and extend this to issues related to adaptation at its next meeting in December.

Another view from Merritt…

Not a good alternative unless for waste.

Peter Clark professor emeritus U of Calgary Chemistry in Merritt ” The Earth will be a dead planet in 80 million years.” November 13-20-27th

Peter gave the last of three talks on the energy needs of humankind and its ability to switch to alternatives in energy from fossil fuels. The pessimistic facts based talks dismissed many alternatives as political and we would use all fossil fuels with in the next few hundred years. He said carbon, phosphorous , ammonia etc is an crucial element to life on earth as fertilizer as well as energy. They are needed to support populations. ” In 80 million years the earth will be a dead planet with all its carbon locked up in limestone.” No reasonable escape to Space”

Population impact lessened by old age.

Peter estimated that if world followed Japans example of a population of 30 percent old people then crisis would be managed better. Material prosperity is also having a positive impact on smaller families in many countries.
